Hi there!

We know that:

Initial Total Mechanical Energy = Final Total Mechanical Energy

(Ei = Ef)

In this instance:

Ei = Gravitational Potential Energy

Ef = Kinetic Energy

In the absence of friction, ALL of the initial potential energy will be changed into kinetic energy at the bottom of the slide. Thus, the maximum kinetic energy of the child will be 1800 J.

The maximum is 1800 J since energy is not created nor destroyed, it is just transformed. In this example, gravitational potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy.

Bingel [31]

Explanation:

A sound wave is often called a pressure wave because there are regions of high and low pressure established in them medium through which the sound wave travels. The regions of high pressure are known as <u>Compressions</u> and the regions of low pressure are known as <u>Rarefactions</u> . Sound waves are composed of compressions and rarefactions. Compressions are the parts where the molecules are congusted and pressed together. However in the rarefactions molecules are relax and have enough space for expansion. Sound waves are the logitudnal waves and always been defined as the motion of the medium particles parallel to the wave motion.

In regards to Pressure ( Ch. Static Fluids - Introductory Physics)
ehidna [41]

Explanation:

P₁ = P₂ + ρgh

g is the acceleration due to gravity

ρ is the density of the fluid

h is the depth of the fluid

P₁ is the pressure at that depth

P₂ is the pressure at the surface

P₁ and P₂ can either be absolute pressures or gauge pressures, but they must match.

For example, if you wanted to find the <em>absolute</em> pressure at the bottom of an <em>open</em> tank, you would use P₂ = Patm = 14.7 psi or 101.3 kPa.

If instead you wanted to find the <em>gauge</em> pressure, you would use P₂ − Patm = 0 psi or 0 kPa.

If the tank is sealed and pressurized, you would use the P₂ of the tank.
